Thrown Into the Wolf’s Den! Zaizai Holds Space In His Hands To Survive the Disaster Year

At this time, the Ninth Prince hurried over and said in a loud voice: "I bought the jade plaque as a gift to my mother and concubine."

Everyone turned around and saw the Ninth Prince frowning and walking quickly towards Concubine Qi.

Concubine Qi's eyes were obviously stunned, and then the Ninth Prince stood in front of her and bowed to Princess Shu.

"Auntie, I'm really sorry. I begged my uncle for several days to convince him to sell me this jade plaque. Originally, he wanted to give it to you, but because my mother-in-law's birthday is coming, I wanted to give it to you. A gift like no other."

"The palace people came to me urgently just now. They were afraid of misunderstanding, so I hurriedly came to explain. Please don't mind, eldest aunt."

Princess Shu obviously didn't believe it, with a hint of doubt in her eyes.

Seeing this, Concubine Qi took off the jade plaque from her neck.

"I only knew that the child was filial, but I didn't know that this was actually given to the princess by the King of Shu. Alas, there was almost a big misunderstanding, and I didn't dare to accept it. I'd better return this jade token to the princess."

After hearing this, Princess Shu calmed down and said hurriedly: "Since it was a misunderstanding, it's best to make it clear. It's Concubine Qi's birthday. It's her responsibility to keep this jade plaque. Don't let down the filial piety of the Ninth Prince."

Princess Shu had no intention of fussing in public, and Shen Ningning could tell that the Ninth Prince came to the rescue and resolved Concubine Qi's crisis.

The little girl pursed her pink lips and snorted.

At a banquet, everyone ate with mixed flavors and different thoughts.

Therefore, just after finishing the meal, Concubine Qi couldn't sit still. After saying a few polite words, she held the maid's hand and left.

The female relatives also went home.

Shen Ningning was going to leave with Ye Changyi and Qi Xiuwei.

But just as he walked through the palace passage, Princess Shu called from behind.

"Ning Ning, stay."

Seeing that Princess Shu had something to ask Shen Ningning, Ye Changyi and Qi Xiuwei voluntarily resigned.

Ye Changyi: "We'll wait for you at the front."

Shen Ningning nodded and then looked at Princess Shu: "Aunt Princess, what's the matter?"

Princess Shu pursed her red lips, her eyebrows still furrowed, and took out the colorful string from her sleeve.

Originally she had been wearing it on her hand and felt very sweet when she lifted it, but after what happened just now, she had taken it off.

"Ning Ning, have you seen that jade sign? Are you sure that this Cailuo is the rope on which the jade sign is hung?"

Shen Ningning did not hesitate and nodded gently: "I'm sure I saw it with my own eyes."

Princess Shu's face turned pale, and her eyes were a little dazed.

"Okay, I understand. Thank you, Ning Ning." Princess Shu turned around and left quickly with her servants.

Looking at her back, Shen Ningning shook her head silently, feeling that Princess Shu had been deceived so miserably.

At night, when the King of Shu rushed back to his palace, he already knew everything that happened in the palace during the day.

He returned to the room calmly. Princess Shu had changed into pajamas and was sitting solemnly by the bed.

The King of Shu pretended to be nonchalant and asked with a smile: "Why haven't you rested yet, madam? I'm so sorry. I went to meet old friends from the past today. They left me to drink some wine, so I came back late."

Princess Shu coldly took out the colorful ribbon.

"My lord, you told me that this is the auspicious colorful rope that you obtained after offering lamps in front of the Buddha for seven days. Is this true?"

King Shu's heart trembled, and he hesitated for a moment. When Princess Shu saw his reaction, she understood that he was lying!

Her eyes became red: "Why did you lie to me?"

Princess Shu suddenly threw Cailuo away: "Obviously this is just a rope to hang the jade plaque. It's ordinary, but you want to give the jade plaque to others, leave a piece of rope, and lie to me that this is the rope you offered to the Buddha. Deng Suijun, why do you say that!"

King Shu hurried over and wanted to hug Princess Shu who was crying, but she pushed her away.

He was anxious: "Madam, it's my fault. I shouldn't have lied to you! However, I originally bought that jade plaque as a gift to you, but the Ninth Prince is my nephew. He asked me for it, so I had to give it to him." ah."

"I have already promised you that when I get to the capital, I will find a special gift for you. If I can't do it, wouldn't it be a breach of trust for you? I was afraid that you would be unhappy, so I made up lies to deceive you."

"But madam, my sincerity for you over the years is a lesson to heaven and earth. You must not be sad because of it or affect your health."

Princess Shu covered her face and cried bitterly: "You have embarrassed me. Do you know that on the way to the palace today, I kept showing off to others that the colorful silk ribbon that the prince gave me came from offering lamps in front of the Buddha."

"But, but... this is just a foil! The real jade medal is with someone else. You tell me how to behave in the capital in the future."

"No madam, the day after tomorrow... no! Tomorrow, we will go to the temple together to offer incense, and I will really buy you a thoughtful gift." King Shu held her hand and comforted her.

See Princess Shu crying non-stop.

The King of Shu was cruel and stood up suddenly and cursed: "Concubine Qi is really not a good person. She caused our husband and wife to quarrel. I will go into the palace and explain the situation to the emperor and ask Concubine Qi to return the jade plaque to me!"

As he was about to leave, Princess Shu came to her senses and quickly held him back with tears in her eyes.

"Forget it, forget it!" Princess Shu choked and shook her head.

If the king of Shu were allowed to enter the palace and bother the emperor about this matter, I don't know how to make a joke.

Now that the matter is over, just give it to Concubine Qi.

Princess Shu didn't care at all, she just didn't like King Shu lying to her.

Get a piece of rope, make up a story, and come to make her happy. Is she such a cheap person?

The King of Shu turned around, took the Princess of Shu into his arms, and wiped away her tears.

Then he said affectionately: "No matter what others say, aren't you happy? Madam, although the things I gave you are fake, my love for you is very true. You should know in your heart that others have nothing but love for you." envious."

Princess Shu was silent, but her crying gradually stopped.

The King of Shu said again: "Okay, don't be sad anymore. I didn't do this well. I will definitely pay attention to it next time. Don't hurt your body by crying too much. Don't we still want to have our own child?"

After hearing this, Princess Shu finally stopped crying and raised her red eyes.

"Your Majesty, you can't lie to me like this next time."

Seeing that he had calmed down, the King of Shu nodded immediately: "Okay, by the way, madam, in a few days we will invite the Ninth Prince to come to the house to enjoy the bamboos..."

Princess Shu did not mind.

She pursed her lips: "Let's give it up. This incident has just come out and I don't want to be blamed anymore. It's just a bamboo appreciation. You can see it anywhere in the palace. There is no need to come to our house."

A cold look flashed across King Shu's eyes, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he nodded: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

He originally wanted to take this opportunity to let the Ninth Prince show his face in front of Princess Shu, thereby consolidating the power relationship between them.

Unexpectedly, Concubine Qi’s birthday party was ruined!

After Princess Shu fell asleep, King Shu went to the south courtyard and slapped Mo Zhirou hard.

"Ah——" Mo Zhirou screamed and fell to the ground.

There were no lights in the room, and it was pitch dark, which made King Shu's angry eyes even more cold and gloomy.

"It's useless!" The King of Shu scolded in a low voice: "I asked you to keep a low profile and buy jade tokens. Not only did you not listen, but you also took the initiative to show off to Princess Funing?"

She has caused great trouble!

Mo Zhirou covered her face and cried bitterly: "Father, I didn't know in advance who you were going to give it to. I...I knew I was wrong!"

The King of Shu pointed at her and gave a stern lesson: "If you see Princess Funing in the future, hide away. If you are not as smart as her, don't talk to her. Be careful of being tricked by her. I won't spare you!"

After that, he slammed the door and left, while Mo Zhirou sobbed and wiped her tears.

The next day Princess Shu saw her cheeks swollen and was concerned about what was wrong with her.

Mo Zhirou could only say: "I knew I had done something wrong. I couldn't sleep at night, and I was in a daze. I didn't pay attention when I stood up, so I knocked on the corner of the bed."

Princess Shu felt distressed when she heard this: "I don't blame you for this. It's your father who didn't tell me clearly. I have medicine for reducing swelling and blood stasis. Ask the maid to bring it to you."

Mo Zhirou said thanking her mother and lowered her head, but there was a flash of resentment in her eyes.
